India name Test squad for England tour

INDIA have named an 18-man squad for their five-Test tour of England this summer – which includes one match at The Ageas Bowl.

Former England coach Duncan Fletcher, who worked with Hampshire as a consultant five years ago, has recalled Gautan Gambhir, 18 months after he played his last Test, and included six quick bowlers, but not veteran left-armer Zaheer Khan.

England’s first Test against India begins at Trent Bridge on July 9 and the third Test is scheduled for the The Ageas Bowl from July 27-31.
